Game is taking a while to connect to a dedicated server, once in the game works fine for a bit, but then when starting a sea battle for example all the ships freeze in place, I can look around, but nothing works. I then eventually get kicked to main menu. Seems to be a networking issue? I cannot reconnect to the server as it thinks I am still on it.
I see a lot of people are experiencing similar issues across all hosts even self hosting, but wanted to make a separate thread so you guys can see how many people are having this issue right now.

Any tips please.

lean reinstall of server, all new files.
Launcehd my game in offline mode, my previous, working world.
Game runs fine, I put anohter building element, just in case.
Stopped the game, Zipped the world from rocks DB_v2
Unzipped the world on the server to the rocks DB_v2
Connected to the server.
Server creates new world as it was corrupeted.
it even creates 3 worlds ... the .zip is file from my solo world.

BUG REPORTING GUIDE

Please share your game logs, game saves, crash dumps, and DxDiag. These are essential for diagnosing and fixing bugs.

HOW TO FIND LOGS

Game logs are located here:
C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Local\R5\Saved\Logs

Server logs are located here:
R5\Builds\WindowsServer\R5\Saved\Logs

To get there, open Steam, find Windrose in your library, right-click it, then go to Manage → Browse local files. From there, archive the files in the Logs folder and share them with us.

Please name your logs in a way that describes the problem, for example: Crashedwhile_fighting_Dodo.log

HOW TO FIND SAVES

Your saves are located here:
C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Local\R5\Saved\SaveProfiles
Please close the game before archiving your saves!

If you are playing on a dedicated server:
• Stop both the client and the dedicated server.
• Find and archive your server logs and world save.

Dedicated server logs are located here:
R5\Saved\Logs

Dedicated server saves are located here:
R5\Saved\SaveProfiles

To get there, open Steam, find Windrose Dedicated Server in your library, right-click it, then go to Manage → Browse local files (or go to the folder where your Windrose Dedicated Server is stored).

If you want @neat ibex we can also provide server logs. (as OP and we have the same issue)

neat ibex
#

OPs thread started before the update so it might be different. I'm afraid to get the investigation going in the wrong direction. Can I ask you to create a separate thread please and describe the issue you are having and also provide logs.

dire sierra
#

We also had this problem before the update.

#

It occured on sunday.

#

#

#

but developers hosted my world and i could play there

fierce vine
#

Yeah, I have updated my Bisect ticket to let them know of the conversations happening here, and that it might be a Bisect issue

fierce vine
#

🤷‍♂️

dire sierra
#

im definetly sure its bissect.

#

We tested it on nitrado and gamehostbros and it works.

#

But maybe this host will also fail in couple days? (not sure)

fierce vine

Ah wait, I see someone from Bisect has replied!

dire sierra
#

ye

#

lets keep an eye on it

fierce vine
#

in your thread, good stuff, thats all I wanted to see

glass hazel
#

Hi, dont know if this relates to your issue but regarding old worlds not working in the new dedicated server, this fixed it for me.

My fix was copying my dedicated server world into my single player save.

Then load into the world in single player. Place something and exit.
Then copy the world in your single player save folder from both the rocks DB and the backup Rocks DB back into your dedicated server folder and it worked again and didnt loose any progress.

Obviosuly dont rename your old dedicated server world folder.

fierce vine
#

Thanks Cheetah, but no, my/our worlds are loading and working fine, but only for a few mins until we get disconnected.

glass hazel
#

That then seems server hosting side where the issue is.

#

Good luck guys
